Saturday’s match will mark the first time that the Roughnecks have hosted the expansion Lights. TRFC traveled to Las Vegas on May 5 and played the Lights to a 1-1 draw. Las Vegas comes to Tulsa on the heels of a 3-2 loss at Swope Park and has 16 points on the season from a 4-6-4 record.

The Roughnecks will enter Saturday’s match coming off their first victory of the season. In new Head Coach Michael Nsien’s debut on Wednesday, Jhon Pirez and Paris Gee each found the back of the net as Tulsa defeated the LA Galaxy II 2-0. The Roughnecks have 10 points and are 1-8-7 on the season.

The Roughnecks will be celebrating Independence Day with the huge post-match Fireworks Extravaganza that will light up the downtown Tulsa sky. It is also Military Appreciation Night, so any active or retired military member will receive two free tickets to the Busch Terrace or family stand section by presenting their military ID at the ticket windows.
